From: Lee Duncan <lduncan@xxxxxxxx> Commit b43abcbbd5b1 ("scsi: fnic: Ratelimit printks to avoid looding when vlan is not set by the switch.i") added printk_ratelimit() in front of a couple of debug-mode messages, to reduce logging overrun when debugging the driver. The code: > if (printk_ratelimit()) > FNIC_FCS_DBG(KERN_DEBUG, fnic->lport->host, > "Start VLAN Discovery\n"); ends up calling printk_ratelimit() quite often, triggering many kernel messages about callbacks being surpressed. The fix is to decompose FNIC_FCS_DBG(), then change the order of checks so that printk_ratelimit() is only called if driver debugging is enabled.
